The world football apex body also made it clear in its letter signed by its secretary general, Jerome Valcke, that Fifa will sanction the NFF and that includes suspending it from every international football events and activities.
“We understand from the sequence of events that the general assembly duly convened by the NFF Executive Committee could not start as planned because some NFF members, including the president, were being held by security forces for questioning.
“Finally, we have learnt that the persons who claim to have been duly elected during the so-called ‘elective general assembly’ have come to the NFF offices claiming to be the legitimate president and members of the NFF.
It also appears the Ministry of Sports has recognised them. “As a consequence, we will not recognise the outcome of the above mentioned elections and should there still be persons claiming to have been elected and occupying the NFF offices at midnight Monday 1 September 2014, we will bring the case to the appropriate Fifa body for sanctions, which may include suspension of the NFF,” Fifa stated in its letter.
Fifa also wants confirmation on the September 4 date set aside by the congress faction of the NFF since “the timing seems very short.”
